當教材第一集念完時,請開始進行這一系列
的英文笑話,屬延伸閱讀,非做不可。
延伸閱讀的生字,只須挑重點單字背,而且必須
先在〔有聲字典〕裡把聲音聽熟再背。
因為沒有有聲書可以聽,所以這些單字不好記,
且易忘。只挑重點單字背即可。
很多讀者告訴我,起初他們完全看不出笑點在哪。
但繼續念教材,並且看了多篇之後,就越來越看得懂。
A circus owner walked into a bar to see everyone
crowded about a table watching a little show. On the
table was an upside-down pot and a duck tap dancing
on it.
The circus owner was so impressed that he offered
to buy the duck from its owner. After some wheeling
and dealing they settled for $10,000 for the duck and
the pot.
Three days later the circus owner runs back to the
bar in anger, "Your duck is a rip-off! I put him on the
pot before a whole audience and he didn't dance a single
step!"
"So?" asked the ducks former owner, "did you r
emember to light the candle under the pot?"
Key words:
circus (n.)馬戲團
upside-down (adj.)顛倒過來的
pot (n.)鍋
tap dancing (n.)踢踏舞
